Description
The content made available at the following URI http://dataminer.d4science.org/wps/ should be customized, it is currently based on 52' North WPS standard text.
The page should report at least:
- information on the service provider, i.e. D4Science;
- a very brief description of the service;
- credits for the underlying technology, i.e. 52' North WPS, as well as for gCube;
- information on "credentials" needed to access the service;
- some links to "standard" calls, e.g. getCapabilities;
According to my understanding this is a page aiming at describing the service for a human user.
That's only a tomcat html page of the WPS application, which must refer to 52North because of their policies.
When a WPS service goes into a catalogue, the GetCapabilities is indicated only, which also contains metadata and functionalities.
Thus, D4Science reference and the other capabilities are here:
http://dataminer.d4science.org/wps/WebProcessingService?Request=GetCapabilities&Service=WPS&gcube-token=aa291a2b-793c-4e5f-a759-044bd50cd414

I remember that it is distributed with a GPL license that does not prevent to change those things. Where you find those policies?
I would believe that we can safely change that page as we prefer.
That's my interpretation of this phrase in the license page: all contributors sign a Contributors License Agreement (CLA) – a contract between contributors and 52°North, which grants 52°North the rights needed to manage and sublicense the software contributions as part of the 52°North software stack.
The licensing page is here:
http://52north.org/about/licensing
You will be able to interpret it better than me. Consider that page is present also on other WPS services based on 52N.
We should not confuse the software license with the content of a webpage that results from an operational instance / a service based on the software.
I'm quite confident that adding a sentence like ... this service is based on 52' North WPS technlogy is more than sufficient to give credits.
You are more expert than me on this. That is a simple index.hml page, please could you suggest me one alternative?
